Antonio Valencia has come in for criticism after he uploaded a video to Instagram which showed him using his mobile phone while driving.

The Manchester United right-back smiled at the camera as he filmed his daughter Domenica, 10, singing and dancing along to Mike Posner's I Took A Pill In Ibiza and the Madonna hit, Like a Prayer.

Valencia, 31, can be seen taking his eyes off the road during the clip, which has attracted criticism online.

One Instagram user wrote: "Get off the phone while driving ffs, kill someone and it won't be funny will it?"

Another added: "Driving and using your phone ? With your kid in the car....Thats bad dude, the police are cracking down on this stuff now, set a good example."

Ecuador international Valencia only returned to United's team at the weekend after three matches out with a fractured arm.

Using a mobile phone while driving carries a punishment of three driving licence penalty points and a fine of £100.

New laws expected to be introduced in 2017 are set to see more severe punishments handed down for motorists who use their phone at the wheel, with offenders to be handed six penalty points and a £200 fine.
